BXBX NOVEL Chapter 540 - Meeting The Old Enemy
Did she guess another food would come her way while she gossipped with her friend Cicilia? The answer is definitely no.
Exactly at 3 pm, the man wearing the online motorcycle taxi jacket stepped in front of her desk again. This time, he gave a meaningful smile and placed the package on Lisa\'s desk.
"Enjoy your drink this afternoon, Sis Lisa!" The mysterious man said with a big smile.
As the mysterious gifts kept coming, Lisa couldn\'t stop smiling and feeling her belly full. At first, Lisa said that she didn\'t care who sent her food and drink all the time. All day, she kept looking at her phone screen, hoping that someone would tell her something.
But until now, when she had taken a sip of the green tea that the mysterious man gave her, her cell phone still hadn\'t received a message from anyone.
Not only Cicilia is jealous because Lisa has a secret admirer, all of her colleagues in the same division as her are also jealous. Who doesn\'t want to be sent breakfast, lunch, and fresh drinks in the afternoon?
Ever since Lisa received the package, Cicilia couldn\'t stop grumbling and feeling sorry for her poor self. She is 3 years younger than Lisa, and until now, she has not had a boyfriend. The woman had been in a relationship for a long time, maybe about 2 years, and worse, her ex-boyfriend never bought her food or even snacks.
"Oh, perhaps it\'s because he\'s majoring in economics, that\'s why he\'s really stingy. I used to take him to the cinema, but he refused because he said cinema tickets were too expensive! Then he said to me to just watch pirated movies!" Cicilia grumbled while drinking Lisa\'s green tea.
It turns out that not only does she not have a boyfriend, Cicilia also has no male friends! And again, it\'s because his ex-boyfriend was too possessive. Now that they have broken up, Cicilia still struggles to make friends with the opposite sex.
Cicilia sighed, "I want to meet your boyfriend! I want to see with my own eyes how your romantic boyfriend is! Ugh, please God spare me one guy like him, please."
Hearing that could only make Lisa chuckle softly. Because in fact, she herself is still not sure who sent her the food and drink mysteriously. Besides, if it was Oscar who sent her all this, she wasn\'t sure what their relationship really was either.
Oscar could have bought her some food and drink that day because he felt guilty. Or he could just do that to win her heart again. She doesn\'t know, Lisa herself is still not sure.
"Don\'t worry, everyone is born in pairs. You\'re still young, so maybe your soulmate is still on his way towards you, so just relax. After all, if that guy is really your soulmate, he will treat you well. Not like your ex-boyfriend!"
What Lisa said had a point. In this world, everyone is destined to be with their fated pairs. Some are matched and manage to be with the right person until death comes. Because actually, not everyone has the chance to do so.
There are people who are so in love with their job that they prefer to pursue a career rather than getting married.
But of course Lisa didn\'t say that! Cicilia could be pessimistic and think she doesn\'t have a life partner.
"Well, I hope I\'ll have a boyfriend by the end of this year! Think of it as a gift for my mother, who has been whining for a grandchild since last year. She thinks that finding a life partner and having children is easy, what can I do…"
That afternoon, Lisa and Cicilia had already walked to the elevator because the clock already showed 5 pm. Since Cicilia still had important business with the manager from another division, the woman had to stop by the 4th floor before going home. This resulted in Lisa inevitably going home alone.
"Oh, I\'m desperate again..." Lisa grumbled when Cicilia had left her alone.
Finally, Lisa pressed the elevator button for the closest floor so she could immediately go to the toilet. The number of cold and sweet drinks she consumed today made her have to frequent the toilet.
After her business in the toilet was finished, Lisa walked leisurely towards the elevator. But before her steps took her further, she saw a very familiar woman. Her hatred might\'ve made her recognize her figure fast.
Sometimes, the universe likes to make people miserable. Just like what Lisa is going through now. Of all the humans she hated, why did she have to meet that woman in the office where she worked!?
Her footsteps immediately stopped and she planned to go down the stairs instead. But before she could turn around, the woman\'s figure turned and looked right into her eyes!
Now, Lisa\'s plan to escape the demonic woman is ruined. If she kept turning around and going down the stairs, she might think that she was afraid of her.
And actually, fear is not the right feeling to describe what she feels right now. Maybe feeling lazy to argue with that woman is the right way to describe it.
In addition, Lisa has never made a mistake or offended her. So why should she run away? The one who really had to avoid Lisa was that woman of course, not the other way around.
Having that thought made Lisa walk back towards the elevator door which was still closed. She glanced briefly at the woman, averted her gaze, and pressed the button that the demonic woman had pressed earlier.
Lisa had said that she was not afraid of her. But actually, she was scared enough to maintain eye contact with her for more than 5 seconds!
The middle-aged woman was wearing a red knee-length dress and her neck was decorated with a pearl necklace the size of a thumb. Almost all of her fingers were pinned with large gold rings. Her hair was neatly tied back, making her golden yellow earrings stand out.
Seeing Lisa standing right next to her made the woman let out a mocking laugh. She didn\'t expect that cheap woman to be wearing clothes that foreigners usually wore.
Who wears a turtleneck to work?
"Gosh, I didn\'t expect that we would meet again!"
